Well now that I've decided to pursue a career as a psychiatrist, I need to know how to beef up my credentials, because it doesn't sound like I can get into med school.
I was planning to do post-bacc and try to get a 4.0 plus a decent MCAT score. But my undergrad GPA is 3.3, which is not good enough. I also have a withdrawal of two semesters when I had mental health problems which is what inspired me to pursue a career in mental health in the first place. So do you think maybe I should get a masters in Biology to boost my GPA or work in a clinical setting for a few years to boost my resume?
